Apple

While summer fruits might be gone for another year, with autumn come a whole new delicious bunch of vegetables and fruits like winter squash, cranberries and APPLES! Apples are everywhere you turn in the fall and are such a delicious and versatile fruit packed with nutrients and antioxidants that you can include in your dishes from breakfast to dessert.

Apples are a crisp, white fleshed fruit with a red, green or yellow skin and belong to the Rose family of plants along with other favourite fruits like apricots, plums, cherries, peaches, pears, raspberries and almonds. While all apples are sweet and refreshing, their tartness and use very much depends on the apple variety you choose (more on that below).
